Rohde & Schwarz

Rohde & Schwarz will demonstrate FSWX3044, a twin-input 44GHz spectrum analyser with cross-correlation measurement at IMS2025 in San Francisco. The company emphasises a novel multi-path architecture that supports a cross-correlation mode, explaining: A single signal input is internally split into two independent signal paths, each equipped with its own local oscillator and ADC. With this design, cross-correlation algorithms can be ...

Rohde & Schwarz is claiming to have invented a new test set-up for verifying power amplifier performance when connected to an antenna, which typically shows a dispersive impedance, by swapping the vector network analyser for an oscilloscope. It is based on the company’s RTP084 scope, equipped with the wide-band modulated load-pull option (RTP-K98) and paired with its SMW200A vector signal ...

Bluetest and Rohde & Schwarz have created a MIMO stress testing perform for IEEE 802.11be  (Wi-Fi 7) equipment. It consists of R&S one-box CMX500 signaling tester (right), a Bluetest RF reverberation chamber – its RTS65, for example (below left), and Bluetest’s Flow control software. “In contrast to anechoic test chambers, reverberation chambers extensively reflect an RF signal inside the chamber, ...

Vehicle-to-Everything may be the technology answer to the continuous automotive trend to access digital services and third party and OEM applications, says Holger Rosier. Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) devices serve as an interface to the digital world and offer the capability to provide software and firmware updates over the air, to offer real-time traffic information to the driver, to serve infotainment and ...

Rohde & Schwarz revealed a second-generation if its entry level oscilloscope with two or four channels, and bandwidth options of 70, 100, 200 or 300MHz. Guide price for the 70MHz two channel model is €1,690. RTB 2 is an an evolution of the 2017 RTB2000, keeping the touchscreen and 10bit vertical resolution, and adding an arbitrary waveform generator and 160Mpoint ...

Peter Riedel has resigned as president and COO and left Rohde & Schwarz, for personal reasons according to the company, which said: “He will remain associated with Rohde & Schwarz in an advisory role.” “After nearly 36 years at Rohde & Schwarz, I have decided that now is the time to take a different direction professionally,” said Riedel. “I look ...

Rohde & Schwarz is claiming the world’s fastest oscilloscope zone trigger update rate, using a dormant asic feature that can now offer of up to 600,000 waveform/s and has <1.45μs blind time between trigger events. Zone triggering allows users to specify trigger conditions by drawing one or more zone areas on the instrument’s display. Each acquisition is then inspected for ...

Rohde & Schwarz has introduced a rack-mount 2GHz display-less oscilloscope with eight channels that fits into a 2U (89mm) slot. It has eight 2.5Gsample/s channels that can be interleaved to provide four 5Gsample/s channels, and is part of the new MXO 5C series of scopes which have been cut down from the recently-introduced display-inclusive MXO 5 series. As well as ...

Demonstrations of automotive technology at CES paved the way for autonomous driving and emphasised the role of sensors and AI in vehicle systems, reports Caroline Hayes. Automotive radar has been described as one of the most significant additions to vehicles in the past two decades. In a 3D form, measuring azimuth (horizontal angle) distance and velocity, radar is used in ...

Rohde & Schwarz has introduced 5GHz instantaneous bandwidth front-ends for its automotive radar test set-up. “From the automotive radar perspective, a higher instantaneous bandwidth improves the distance resolution,” the company said. AREG8-81WS (monostatic – single antenna) and AREG8-81WD (bistatic – dual antenna) are for the 76 to 81GHz band and are updates on the 4GHz AREG8-81S and …D. These work ...
